Security system with staging capabilities

摘要

An improved system and method for providing a security system with the capability to stage a modification to its operation is disclosed. Staging the modification before actually modifying normal operation of the security system allows the impact of the modification on the security system to be examined prior to deployment. If the staging of the modification to the security system is deemed successful, the modification can be fully deployed with reduced risk of unexpected security lapses or other detrimental consequences.
